No, sorry, I can't say that you qualify for those. To qualify, you
need to become more like the average person in the post-1970's U.S.,
or, better yet, the average politician. ;-) My remark was aimed more
at our throw-away society in general than this list.
Hopefully you were able to salvage some ICs from the boards before
